So I am just getting back into reloading after several years off. When I was reloading, I didn't know what I was doing, so now, it's compounded. But here is what i have, I'm reloading 45acp on a dillon 650xl:
1 - I'm attempting to set up the dies and am having trouble with, I believe, the full length sizer. I will be pushing through rounds and will get one where the bullet will drop all the way down to powder when It moves to seating. Not every bullet will do this. It appears to be random. The die was adjusted by moving plate all the way and dropping the die until it touches plate, then backing off about 1/4 turn.
2- I'm running into this issue (as pictured) where I believe the crimp is off a bit. When I tried to adjust the die down, it totally crushes the while round and/or shaves the brass off. From the picture, is that a huge issue?
Help would be much appreciated, thank you.
